New York weapons and gun laws are among the strictest in the country as our client, a licensed gun holder in Nassau County, came to find out when he accidentally brought the wrong bag to JFK airport on his way to catch a flight to a meeting. Although licensed in Nassau County, a New York City Special Carry License is needed to carry in New York City. The Queens District Attorney charged our client with Criminal Possession of a Weapon as a Class C Felony, with a mandatory minimum of 3 ½ years! Mr. Greenberg moved swiftly to get the client released from jail, conferenced the case with the Queens District Attorney’s Office, and put together a mitigation package. The case was Dismissed and Sealed within days of the arrest! It is extremely important that your attorney be highly experienced in dealing with similar cases with both the Queens District Attorney’s office and the Queens Courts. Don’t leave your future in the hands of chance after being arrested at an NYC airport, licensed or not.

Kevin Gomez, 22, was acquitted of felony manslaughter in the fatal 2023 hit-and-run death of three-year-old Quintus Chen in Queens, New York, but a jury found him guilty of misdemeanor charges including reckless driving and operating an unregistered vehicle. Queens Daily Eagle Prosecutors argued Gomez’s tinted windows severely impaired his visibility, yet he struck the child and fled the scene, while his defense countered that Gomez was merging into traffic and did not see the child, calling the tragedy an accidental “pedestrian error.” Queens Daily Eagle Gomez faces sentencing on December 10 and could receive either probation or up to a year behind bars.
